Organic Dirty Dozen

I just spent $140 for a week's worth of groceries and thought I have to blog about the cost of organic food. Feeding my family organic food is truly giving them the gift of health but really does it always have to be double the cost of the pesticide and hormone filled food?! When I'm really watching our budget, I at least shop with the Organic Dirty Dozen in mind. The Organic Dirty Dozen is the list of the 12 foods most contaminated with pesticide residue. Although my list is really a bakers dozen plus one for good measure because I also include dairy and meat. Organic Dirty Dozen-Learn it, love it, live by it!
